The dead littered the roads like rubbish, their blood the ancient city’s latest graffiti. Tens of thousands dead.
Mina made the assumption simply by extrapolating from what she saw on every street.
Now and then, amongst the dead men, women, and children, she or David would spot a body that wasn’t human. One laid in front of her now—a charred creature with clumps of flesh between its crooked teeth. Somebody had fought back and run it through with a skiing pole. The price tag still hung from the
...rubber grip.
“Every inch of its skin is burned away,” Mina muttered, more to herself than David. “It’s like these things walked right out of a fire.”
David was busy making notes and using his phone to take pictures, but he heard what she said and replied. “Well, they say Hell is hot, if that’s still what you’re implying.”
“I think these monsters used to be men and women once. What do you think that means?”
“Maybe they’ve been burning in Hell for all eternity.”
Mina thought about it and found it grim to even consider.
